An interesting wee thing I read in The Guardian the other day was that Robbie Williams’s latest number one single was co-written by Stephen Duffy. If you remember him at all you will remember him as Stephen Tin-Tin Duffy who had hits with Kiss Me and The Icing on the Cake in 1985. However I’m more a fan of him circa The Lilac Time and his early 90s solo stuff. The Lilac Time were a kind of folk rock group who had nearly hits with things like Return to Yesterday and American Eyes.
Although I’m no fan of Robbie Williams’s music I am pleased that Stephen Duffy is finally having some long overdue commercial success after his many years of critically acclaimed, but poor selling albums and his numerous droppings by various record labels.
